The Creator opened up his heart. “Cuz people need cheerleaders, and just having
y’all just there really allowed me to get to where I’m at,” said the rapper.

In the published excerpt from GQ
[https://www.gq.com/story/pharrell-tyler-the-creator-carbon-pressure-and-time],
Tyler expressed his appreciation to Pharrell Williams for the support and
guidance he has received and also extended his gratitude, towards West and Jay
Z. The 32-year-old rapper said: “…Jay and Ye, all these folks who I love, the
greatest, took a liking to me early.” He also went on to highlight how their
motivation helped him achieve the confidence to win ahead in life.

In the world of hip-hop, there is never any constant. It is a scene where
records are made and constantly broken. Also, it is a ground where new artists
form and retire at the same time. Given the scale of the industry, it is
reasonable to assume that any newcomer will have a hard time going up the ranks.
Thus, support from mentors such as West certainly goes a long way in producing
legends.

Tyler has consistently vocalized his admiration for Kanye West, with whom he has
had the privilege of collaborating on numerous occasions. 


KANYE WEST HAS BEEN A MENTOR AND COLLABORATOR TO MUSIC ICONS

Travis Scott has openly admitted his love and admiration for Kanye West. The
rapper has been a mentor, a collaborator, and even family in the ‘Utopia’
singer’s life. Moreover, Travis Scott is now playing catch-up to the ‘Donda’
singer. Moreover, Scott may now be looking to break his mentor’s record with a
streaming milestone.
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/music-news-will-kanye-west-still-remain-numero-uno-as-utopia-by-travis-scott-nears-his-donda-record/]
Judging by the numbers, Scott may well pass by West if all goes steady.



Tyler, the Creator, has been an admirer of Kanye West ever since he was a
teenager. They have worked together on tracks like ‘Smuckers’ from Tyler’s album
‘Cherry Bomb’ and ‘Puppet’ from ‘Igor’. They have also shared the stage for
performances, including an appearance at West and Jay Z’s joint SXSW show back,
in 2014.
